Instructions
- Add the potatoes to a large pot and cover with water, also add 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Place on the stove over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Boil until barely fork-tender, about 9-10 minutes. Drain well and let cool in the pot or in a colander.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the dressing ingredients and place in the fridge to chill.
- Next, while boiling the potatoes, place a cast iron pan over medium-high heat, add just a splash of oil, and add the corn kernels. Stir and cook until lightly charred. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Transfer the cooled potatoes to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the chopped eggs, if using. Add the corn, onion, cotija cheese, and cilantro. Stir to combine.
- Add the salad dressing and gently stir until fully coated. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper.
- Serve warm or chilled with more cotija cheese on top and fresh cilantro.
